An off-duty officer working security at the car lot heard Hampshire, who was inside a building currently under construction, screaming around 11:40 p.m., said Riley.

As the officer approached him, Hampshire ran towards the dealership's used car lot and began pounding on three parked vehicles with a portable barricade, she said.

The officer confronted Hampshire, who "squared up with hands clinched in a fist to fight the officer," said Riley.

The officer took Hampshire to the ground and waited for another officer to help with the handcuffs, she said. Hampshire was taken to Christus St. Elizabeth Hospital for medical clearance before he was taken to the county jail.
